The FAMU Venom mascot has been turned into a bobblehead statute, that will be released part of a series of bobbleheads created for 13 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU).
The officially licensed bobbleheads is produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, and will stand about 6-8 inches tall. Each will be individually numbered to 2,023.
The statue will cost $35 plus $8 shipping per order, and will ship in June. FAMU will receive a percentage of the sales.
"We hope the alumni, students, faculty, staff, and entire Florida A&M community will enjoy this new Bobblehead,” says National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO Phil Sklar. “Bobbleheads are often passed down from generation to generation, and we think the bobbleheads in this new HBCU Series will certainly become cherished keepsakes.”
The other schools in the first series are: Alabama A&M University Bulldogs, Alabama State University Hornets, Delaware State University Hornets, Fayetteville State University Broncos, Grambling State University Tigers, Howard University Bison, Jackson State University Tigers, Morgan State University Bears, North Carolina A&T State University Aggies, North Carolina Central University Eagles, Norfolk State University Spartans, and Tuskegee University Golden Tigers.
"We’re excited to release this long-overdue collection of HBCU bobbleheads,” Sklar says.
